[Congressional Record Volume 159, Number 120 (Thursday, September 12, 2013)] [House] [Page H5515] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] PRAYER The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following prayer: We give You thanks, O God, for giving us another day. Though having returned so recently, the House prepares to leave for a long weekend. Many of its Members prepare to observe Yom Kippur--the Day of Atonement. At a time of great international tensions, many others will take pause to acknowledge past failures and renew efforts at peaceful and productive resolutions to ongoing difficulties. On this day, give the Members of this assembly listening hearts and a willingness to give to each other time and attention. May they be ready to respond to Your Spirit living in each of their colleagues. And may all that is done within the people's House this day be for Your greater honor and glory. Amen. ____________________
